A study of the characteristics of oscillatory surface instabilities leading to droplet formation

Creator:: Daniels, Brian J.
Abstract:: The characteristics of the free surface in an orifice driven by a periodic forcing function have been studied both theoretically and experimentally. In the theoretical study, two wall boundary condition cases were examined: 1) the radial velocity at the wall of the orifice is zero; and 2) the axial velocity...

Hydrodynamic contact/impact modeling and application to ocean engineering problems

Creator:: Challa, Ravi
Abstract:: Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) is a very interesting and challenging multi-disciplinary field involving interaction of a movable or deformable structure with an internal or surrounding fluid flow. FSI has several practical engineering applications such as the determination of the hydrodynamic forces on a structure or the dynamics of motion of bodies...

Numerical modeling of full-coupled fluid-structure interaction

Creator:: Yuk, Dongjun
Abstract:: A numerical model for the simulation of fully-coupled fluid-structure interaction is developed in this study. In modeling the fluid, the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations are solved for an incompressible viscous fluid field and a k-ε model is employed for turbulence computations. Hydrodynamic forces obtained by the integration of the fluid...

Power Output Calculations for an Array of Point-absorber Wave Energy Converters

Creator:: García-Castaño, Manuel
Abstract:: This study presents a methodology for power take off (PTO) forecasting for an array of heave wave energy converters (WECs). Based on spectral data obtained directly from the National Data Buoy Center, representative realistic sea states are generated at the location of the WECs, and by using two wave-structure interaction...

Level structure of ¹⁵²Gd populated in ¹⁵²Tb β decay

Creator:: Stapels, Christopher John
Abstract:: As part of a research program to study the transitional region of N=88 isotones, ¹⁵²Tb was produced by the reaction ¹⁵¹Eu(α,3n)¹⁵²Tb in the 88" cyclotron located at LBNL. Gamma-ray spectroscopy of the radiation emitted from excited ¹⁵²Gd following the β⁺ decay of ¹⁵²Tb has been performed using an array of...

A direct-drive wave energy converter with contactless force transmission system

Creator:: Agamloh, Emmanuel B.
Abstract:: Commonly proposed ocean wave energy converters (OWEC) use inefficient and maintenance demanding intermediate hydraulic and pneumatic systems. We propose a novel rotary direct-drive OWEC that eliminates these intermediate stages. The new device employs a contactless force transmission system (CFTS) comprising a “piston” and a “cylinder” and a ball screw to...

Characterization of the Structure and Dynamics of the Intrinsically Disordered Dynein Intermediate Chain and its Interactions with Regulatory Binding Partners

Creator:: Morgan, Jessica L.
Abstract:: Cells represent microcosms of spatial and temporal structural organization, with the achievement of internal spatial organization relying upon a collection of macromolecular motor complexes to transport and localize components throughout the cell. Cytoplasmic dynein is one such motor complex, and is the principal ATP-dependent motor for retrograde transport along microtubules...

Fluid-structure interaction analysis with the particle finite element method

Creator:: Zhu, Minjie
Abstract:: To facilitate the evaluation and design of structures subjected to fluid loading, a study of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) using the particle finite element method (PFEM) is presented to approximate the responses and sensitivities of structures which interact with fluid. A wide range of structural types are permissible by making no...

Soil-bridge interaction during long-duration earthquake motions

Creator:: Romney, Kyle T.
Abstract:: Earthquake engineering analyses are often performed using shallow, crustal earthquake motions (e.g., 1940 El Centro). However, large areas of the world are subject to subduction zone earthquake motions (e.g., the Pacific Northwest). A subduction zone earthquake motion is characterized by its long duration (e.g., strong shaking lasts for more than...
